Thanks for the info. I  just  managed to install Slackware. I kept getting hung up on the kernel install. When I figured out how to install the 2.6.17.13 kernel along with the kernel modules package, everthing else went smoothly. Now I have to figure out how to tell the difference between Slackware packages and all the others and who to trust. After Slackware Arch should be a breeze. See you in a week or so. Ps Slax Live CD looks interesting too.

  • Windows 8.1 - Windows Couldn't connect to the System Event Notification Service service

    I have an issue that has been bothering me for a while on new 8.1 computers. Standard users are not able to log into the computer on the first try consistently. They receive the error message: Group Policy client service failed the sign-in access is
    denied. They are stuck at the logon screen.
    If an administrator logs in (local or domain), they can log in but get a black desktop with two error messages. The first is Location is Not available - C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\Desktop is unavailable. The second error message is a popup
    balloon. It states "Failed to Connect to a Windows service. Windows couldn't connect to the System Event Notification Service service."
    When a standard user attempts to log in, event viewer records three warnings. They are listed in order from oldest to newest
    The winlogon notification subscriber <Profiles> was unavailable to handle a critical notification event. -Logged 9:14:44
    The winlogon notification subscriber <GPClient> failed a critical notification event. - Logged 9:14:44
    The winlogon notification subscriber <Profiles> was unavailable to handle a notification event. - Logged 9:14:49
    After a reboot, users still have the issue. I noticed that the user profile services and system event notification service are not running though their startup type is automatic. They start after a minute or two.

    Hi Joseph__Moody,
    Based on your description ,I assume it is a domain environment .First of all ,I would suggest you to try to update all the machine .
    "I have an issue that has been bothering me for a while on new 8.1 computers"
    Do you mean all the Windows 8.1 machine share the same symptom or just a specific one ?Did the machine work correctly before ?When did the issue start to occur ?Have you installed any third party software before ?Can we operate the machine when we login with
    an administrator account ?
    If the issue occurred with the specific machine :
    "The first is Location is Not available - C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile\Desktop is unavailable."
    Please try the following suggestions if we can operate the machine when we login with the administrator account :
    Open Windows Explorer and navigate to: C:\Windows\system32\config\systemprofile and verify if it has the Desktop folder there.If the folder doesn`t exit, we can copy from C:\users\Default\Desktop location(This folder is hidden by default).
    We also can try the following suggestions to have a troubleshoot :
    1.Run "sfc /scannow"or "dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth" to check the health of the system files.
    2.Perform a full scan with an antivirus software.
    3."They start after a minute or two."
    I suspect there is a third party service confilct here. Please perform a clean boot to verify whether there is a third party conflict here .
    How to perform a clean boot in Windows
    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929135
    If the issue occurred with multiple machines in the domian ,I would suggest you to check whether you have configured any logon scripts and logon group policy .We can remove the machine from the domain to have  a troubleshoot .
    If the issue occurred recently ,we can perform a system restore to recover the machine to a previous normal point.

  • Boot camp with xp -- couldn't connect to the internet when installed

    I need to run xp for my job because the software they use only works with windows.  So I tried installing the copy of XY I have, XP Professional, last night.   I used the same XP disk for my first mac a few years ago, a 24" iMac with Leopard.  I am now trying this on my MB pro with snow leopard.  It has the same processor as my first mac (a duo-core, I bought  a refurbished mb pro).
    Everything went fine until I tried to access the Internet to get any updates and download the software needed.  I was not able to connect to the Internet at all.  I tried setting it up, etc, but nothing worked.  It could not connect, even though there seemed to be an icon that sad the signal was there (the two little computer monitors in the lower right of the taskbar)
    I called my ISP to see of there was anyone on that end who might know what was going on, but nothing.  He told me that my version of Internet Explorer was old and I neede the newest one (this copy of XP was from 2002 and the original version was IE 6), at which point I asked him how I was supposed to do that when I couldn't connect to the net.  Anyway, he gave me the number for some company called plumchoice, and they couldn't help me because I was using boot camp, and I was told that they don't support that platform.  I thought that was nonsense, given that I was running windows, not OSX and it worked before.
    When I did this a few years ago it worked fine -- I could get on the net with no problem,  and even then I think that there was a new version of IE that I had to upgrade to, yet I could access the Internet fine.  I thougt I needed to download some things from the internet to complete the installation (from the window that came up when you start boot camp assistant) but it couldn't find anything, so  I chose the second option that says I have the necessary disks that came with the computer.
    So does anyone know what may be going on?  I would also like to mention that I didn't yet go ahead and install the OS X drivers when I tried this, but I didn't think thay would make any difference -- I thought that they were just for the keyboard and volume controls, etc.  If I need to do that, then I feel like a real idiot and you all deserve to laugh at me.
    I'm not sure which disk that came with the machine is the one I'm supposed to use, so can anyone tell me that as well?  It's been a while since I did this (2008). I should be able to use this OS (and I only need it to download some software and work within it for this job).

    You need to install the drivers, especially the ones for your network hardware.

  • Is it possible to directly connect two Xserves with a Promise VTrak E610fD via Fibre?

    I have two Xserves and I'd like to connect them with a Promise VTrak E610fD. As this storage has two controllers, I'd like to connect both Xserve with both controllers. Is this setup possible? Can I access (read and write) the same disk array with both Xserves simultaneously (Xsan?) or do I have to create two separate arrays?

    Hello bleistift, and welcome to the AppleBoards,
    Fibre channel is SCSI which means that any device connected by fibre assumes it is in sole control of that device. When you attach more than one machine via fibre both machines assume they are in control and unexpected behaviors and data corruption ensues. SAN (like Apple's XSAN) provides a layer of arbitration over the shares allowing multiple fibre connections to play nicely with one another while still being connected over fibre.
    You could easily connect two machines to a single RAID box if they are accessing different RAID volumes at the same time, but once you start connecting to the same data at the same time you need SAN.

  • How to connect multiple Xserve Raid for Best Performance

    I like to get an idea how to connect multiple Xserve Raid to get the best performance for FCP to do multiple stream HD.

    Again, for storage (and retrieval), FireWire 400 should be fast enough. If you are encoding video directly to the external drive, then FireWire 800 would probably be beneficial. But as long as the processing of the video is taking place on the fast internal SATA drive, and then you are storing files on the external drive, FireWire 400 should be fine.
    Instead of speculating about whether it will work well or not, you need to set it up and try your typical work flow. That is the only way you will know for sure if performance is acceptable or not.
    For Time Machine, you should use a single 1.5TB drive. It is likely that by the time your backup needs comes close to exceeding that space, you will be able to buy a 3TB (or larger) single drive for the same cost. Also, I would not trust a RAID where the interaction between the two drives is through two USB cables and a hub. If your primary storage drive fails, you need your backup to be something that is simple and reliable.
    Oh, and there should be no problem with the adapter, if you already have it and it works.
    Edit: If those two external drives came formatted for Windows, make sure you have use Disk Utility Partition tab to repartition and reformat the drive. When you select the drive in the Disk Utility sidebar, at the bottom of the screen +Partition Map Scheme+ should say *GUID Partition Table*. When you select the volume under the drive in the sidebar, Format should say *Mac OS Extended (Journaled)*.

  • Couldn't connect iPhone to internet

    Hi guys, I hope you could help me with my iPhone problem. Today I was using whatsapp to chat with my friends, it works fine as usual. But later on, the internet connection suddenly lost. However, on the top left corner of the screen, it shows the provider's name and 3G. I thought it was the sim card that have problems, so I then used wifi as an alternative. But when I turned on the wifi connection, it still couldn't connect to the internet. I tried to restart my phone, but it still can't connect to the internet until now. I  have no idea what is happening to my iPhone since this is the first time that ever happened to me.
    If you guys now how to fix this, please let me now. thanks a lot!

    Any ideas everyone? Today I have restarted my iPhone once again, but it still remains the same. Do I have to forget the wifi network first and then retype the password? Because I tried to connect the wifi to my Mac and iPad, and it works just fine like usual. I don't know what is happening to my iPhone.

    Whats wrong with my code?
    Please help!!!!

    You're using the "imaps" protocol, but you've set properties for the "imap" protocol.  Change all the property names from mail.imap.* to mail.imaps.*.
    Also, get rid of all the socket factory properties.
    If you still can't connect, see these connection debugging tips.
    Most likely you're using the wrong host name or port number.  In almost all cases, it's better to just let JavaMail choose the correct port number.
